How You’ll Learn About Communication

Author: Essential Skills

Course Structure

This course is made up of 4 core units. In each unit you will engage with media, read, connect to other outside sources and practice and reflect upon what you’ve learned. You will start by learning foundational communication skills and then have the opportunity to take it to the next level and think through overcoming communication obstacles at work.

On average, this course will take you 6-8 hours to complete. Make sure to take the time to dive deeper into the additional resources and engage in meaningful reflection throughout the course. This may include having conversations with your boss or manager, looking closely at yourself and what you need to improve on, or watching and observing others.

Unit 2: Explore Communication
Unit 3: Use Communication at Work
Unit 4: Take Communication to the Next Level
Unit 5: Plan Your Communication Goals
